UK protesters arrested for beaming Epstein video on Windsor castle before Donald Trump's visit

Protesters have projected images of Donald Trump and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein onto a castle in England ahead of his state visit.

Four adults were arrested on suspicion of malicious communications, following an "unauthorised projection" which police described as a "public stunt".

They as well had a monsterous banner with the two faces on it. It was shown on the late show with Steven Colbert tonight.

@DeWayfarer Where will it all end?
Thousands and Thousands of arrests of protesters this year in the UK.
12,000 arrests for speech crimes.
The ones making these pathetic laws are the ones that should be arrested.

...Nearly 900 people were arrested at protests in central London on Saturday alone, many older than 60.

...

British police have made over 1,300 arrests using terrorism legislation at Palestine Action protests this summer — five times more than the total number of arrests for terrorism-related activity in the U.K. in all of 2024.

BBC confirms the 890 at one rally...

@DeWayfarer Thank you. They weren't arrested for protesting. They were arrested on suspicion of supporting a proscribed terrorist organsation. Naive old people need to take note. Obviously we have to wait and see how many are actually prosecuted and convicted. It may be that the CPS decides it's not in the public interest to go for everyone.

@FreddieUK Still that wouldn't make up for the full five times larger than 2024. Maybe two or three times larger.

Something suspicious here. Like they designed the law purposely to catch Muslims.

That would be racist. We once had such laws in the states. And likely to happen again the way things are going.

1,300 is more than even Gusman's 1,200.

@DeWayfarer The only change in the law that happened recently was to declare an organisation that chose the title 'Palestine Action" as a terrorist group because of certain controversial actions and implied intelligence that deems them a security threat. The title becomes confused because of the febrile attitudes around the Palestine issue and some people have seen it as an attack on legitimate protest.

@FreddieUK exactly. It has become a race issue.

Believe it or not, even Arabs consider Palestinians a race.
